No recipes today, but just a glimpse of what I’ve been doing with part of my evenings this week. I recently acquired a large quantity of lemons and limes and I’ve been spending a part of each evening zesting and juicing.
The zest and juice are currently hanging out in my freezer. I’m hoping to build up a stash so over the winter I can still enjoy the fresh, bright flavors of lemons and limes!
And, btw, if you don’t have a Microplane grater, you must must must get one. Well, if you do any zesting of citrus or grating of cheese, that is. It’s the best $15 I ever spent. Makes zesting a lime go so quickly and easily!

I have like 10 cups of lemon and lime zest and juice in the freezer. I’ll never use it all but it is like a safety net of citrusy goodness….in case I ever have a middle of the night urge for lemon meringue.
speaking of, it is midnight and lemon meringue sounds amazing.
